mum point of railway rates had disappeared
Problems of space and time that had been held
1nsoluble were solved by the development of
the railway system. Wilderness were peopled
and the most distant frontiers brought into con-
yenlent contact with great commercial centers-
In very literal sense it may be said that the
great West. with its vast and vigorous indus
trial life, IS the offspring of the railway.
The authors of the bill continues the Times
were lawyers wholly Impractical in railway
management. and devoid OF experience in rail
way administration. These gentlemen. with
scheme which has wrecked already so many
business interests and wrought more injury,
and given more cause for complaint and vigor-
Gus profanity than any other nostrum of polti-
cal quackery that ever has been compounded
by the ignorance of demagOgues in this land.
III Is glorious enactment for lawyers without
clients, whose fees attorneys for complain
ants without Interest or direct cause OF com
plant are chargeable as costs against railway
companies. IL is d satisfactory enactment to
persons that yearn to seek gain in committing
the common-laW offense called battery. Ii is
profitable enactment for some remote places
like the Zenith City of the Unsalted Seas "
sometimes called DULUTH, whose trade it slim
ulates at the cost of other places like Minneap-
oils and St. Paul. 1t is a jolly enactment for the
wire-fence manufacturer whose establishment is
connected with his market by a navigable ditch
tlnSulshes IN bankruptcy. 1t is the very per-
lection of legislative wisdom for ounces that
believe competition is the death of trade And
for the Socialist revolutionary that would have
the Government undertake the administration
OF everything, beginning with the railways, it is
the beginning of the realization of his sweet
dream of the perfect happiness of every man at
the cost OF the rest 1t is an enactment, how
ever that plainly is unsuited to the active state
of things in this world.

themselves with the work Of the
movement.
The Cheesewrights had an ex-
cellent original song-"The Three
Classes s"-published in the. EN-
ouIRER two weeks ago. 1t was re-
ceived with applause.
When the question-box was
open ed several old chestnuts were
found therein. why do you use
the red flag7" was answered with
some. temper by Comrade Haskell
who said:
1--WE use it for the same reason
that the Christians use cross, the
moslems crescent, the Chinese a
dragon; it is the emblem of our
religion; it has nothing to do with
nationality. The red doesn't mean
blood but that all men have the
same colored life fluid. If OBJ
jectors want a chance to kick at
an emblem of death, let them OBJ
ject to the Masons who pack
around genuine skull and cross
bones as their watch-chain en-
blem."
The Iron Law Of Wages and the
theory of value was expounded in
reply to to the question, "Will all
workers be paid the same under
the Socialist system1"
1--WE measure value by scien-
tihc standard; by factors which
are common to all labor and en-
bodied in all goods. The present
system does not. The present
systemis idiotic. Everything now
is measured by dollars. What
does a dollar representa- Nothing
definite. 1t means five weeks
labor of a seven-year-old child in
the Baltic mills, one weeks labor
of an apprentice-printer girl in
New York, four days labor of a
Denver sewing girl, one days
labor of Chinese, half a days labor
of a white day laborer, two hours
toll of a Denver bricklayer and
five minues labor of a lawyer. So
cialism inveshgates and finds the
common factors in all labor, time,
life, force and skill and formulates
an exact rule of equivalence of
values. Your present system is as
idiotic as it would be to say that a
quart of strawberries comprises a
bulk of ten square inches, quart
of blackberries twenty, of goose
berries fifty and of fools this room

became mankind in the mines, in
the factories, and in the work.
shops. The Socialists see that so
long as those means of production
remain in the hands of private in
dividuals SO long will the people
suffer. We claim the right of
property in those wheels of in
dustry."
If the people went as far as
George and McGlynn advise they
would only be taking logical
step in going further and follow
ing the advice of Shevitch. DR..
McGlynn talks of the "unearned
increment" of land as belonging
"the community by whose neces-
sites, energies and capacities it is
confessedly produced" But so
Karl Marx, the great Socialistic
writer, speaks of the unpaid Ia
Dor" of the workman, or the "sur-
plus value" of which the capital
ist gets the benefit. Over and
above his entire outlay, including
the wages paid to his workmen,
argues Marx, the capitalist finds
himself in possession of a surplus,
which can only represent the "un-
paid labor" of his workmen.
Therefore, while George would
only take a part of the surplus
value" which he calls "unearned
increment" the Socialist morelog-
ically would take all and if the the
ory of either of themis sound,
the Socialist is right. Nor can
George hold a candle to Marx SO
far. as concerns intellectual ability
to grasp the great industrial prob
lem.
We are not surprised, therefore,
at the contempt for the preten-
tions of Georgeism which is dis
played by the Socialists. They
know that it is a mere feeting
shadow in comparison with the
structure built by their own teach
ers. 1t is of merely ephemerial
notoriety, while the other will
long remain for serious discussion
and criticism by the students of
social problems. Instead of
Georges condescending to them
as a teacher, they are rather justi-
fed in looking on him as pupil
in the primary class of Socialism.

GEORGE AND MARX.
The Pupil Assumes to BE the Teacher.

Editorial in New York sun, August I2.
1t is very amusing to find Henry
George using the words Socialism
and Socialist as terms of reproach,
for the platform of the United
Labor Party, as constructed by
him, is distinctly Socialistic, and
his land theory is borrowed from
Socialistic writer's, in whose sys-
TENS it forms only subordinate
part of logical whole.
Here is Dr. McGlynn's state
ment of the political creed of Mr..
George:
I'VE believe in the ownership by
the community of the rental values
to be paid in the form of a tax, for
the reason that we hold it proven
that the general bounties of nature
are made for and given to the
community, and for the further
reason that the rental value, which
is the unearned increment, clearly
in strict justice does not belong
to the individuals who have not
earned it twhence its name, un-
earned increment), but does be-
long to the community by whose
necessities, energies, and capaci-
ties it is conlessedly produced.
We hold the same concerning rail-
roads, telegraphs and similar fran
chises, which are the gift of the
people, and clearly should never
be given but for a perfect equiva-
lent to the people. The difficulty
and, we may say, the impossibility
of controlling the enjoyment of
such franchises by individuals or
corporations for the benefit of the
whole people compells us to de-
mand that those things shall be
owned and controlled by as well
as for the people"
Now, what is the platform of
the Socialists? 1t is thus defined
by Mr.. Shevitch:
"All the bugaboo of Socialism
amounts to this: that since human
labor became a commodity. and
the supply of labor larger, the
price of labor became smaller.
The more the inventive genius of
man increased, the more miserable

A Muddled Farmer.

For the Enquirer ~.
Mr.. Everett, 2 prominent ranch
man of Colorado, thinks that the
courts and boards of commission
ers are humbugs, as regards doing
justice between the farmers and
the ditch corporations. He hopes
that the Nebraska farmers will
carry their point in compelling the
authorities of this state to keep
the water in the channel of the
Platte river, and not permit the
ditch companies to draw it off to
their detriment When you talk
to Mr.. Everett about the states
owning and operating the irrigat-
ing bitches, he says that it would
bankrupt the state. How so, any
more than the governments oper-
alton of the postal service ruins it7
The property of the companies
could be condemned to the use of
the state, and the value thereof
fixed by competent jury, board
or tribunal. That course would
save great deal of lawyers wind
and bubbles, and give our judges
much rest, and relieve these COM
panies of the necessity of bribing
legislators. X.
